A Dunedin teenager’s trips to the supermarket for butter proved a dangerous task. As he left the supermarket car park, he did a ‘‘270 degree burnout’’ in Opoho Rd. He then ‘‘deliberately’’ drifted and grazed the kerb in North Rd, narrowly missing a family on foot, before continuing on home, police said. But about 15 minutes later he returned to the supermarket, this time for ‘‘some spreadable butter,’’ Snr Sgt Dinnissen said. The boy has been referred to Youth Aid for dangerous driving.
